We Live A Story

A new book is opened wide,
left blank for all to write on.
Every pen is ready to indite
the unknown story that just begun.

Time couldn't wait to show how it's like,
with all the dramas it brings along,
putting together every single line
for every writer to look back on.

Your story might come with mysteries;
mine with events too unreal to be real.
The best is just to keep writing
and never dwell on the unnecessary.

The beauty of a book lies within its line.
And the joy of a writer is to see it and smile.
A new year is here to story our lives
and the ending depends on the spice we add.

Author's Note

Happy New Year Poets.

Glad we began this new book together again.

Line after line shines through.
Life is an endless story…we write our stories by living.

This is awesome Kay.

I really enjoyed your poem. Makes you count your blessing! Even if said life is not easy. But to realize its your own story of life you fill the pages with. And each new blank page is unique not matter what because it's about ourself and our onces in a life time journey on earth. But who is to know maybe we relive the same life until its fixed good bad or indifferent. Who we meet mix with overcome challenges and such like. could go on but made me think. Great poem. Thought provoking and interesting.

Thanks dear poet.
I'm glad you enjoyed it.

This is a New Year's poem, but also an endorsement of personal responsibility. Everybody's story is different, and it's up to each individual to add the "spice" to it. Most happy endings go to those who earn them.

[Kay Salisu Titilola]

You got me John.

Yes, it is a blank page and we can write the chapter of our lives. Nicely written, Kay. May you find much inspiration to write in 2023. Lydi*
